MILLERS' DAY
Observed at the Exposition---Mat-
tiers of Interest

CerS OF interest.
Millers' day called out the largest
crowd of the week, and being glorious
day beside. aided in large measure in
bringing together the representative
audience i'll the Exposition yesterday.
The mills all closed down, according to
agreement, and the men of this great
local industry came in their
thousands and brought the wife
along and the children too,
as all good millers should,
and prominent in the crowds some of
the wealthiest mill owners of the North
west could be seen. Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Pillsbury enjoyed the Liberati concert
in the evening, and in the art gallery
and around the main building during

of Hillsboro, Oak; Frank Barry and
Edward Sanderson, of Milwaukee;
Mayor Espenheim, of Hastings,
MINI; William Listman, of La
Crosse, and j. D. Green, of Fari-
bault, and many more too numerous
to mention. In the evening the EXPOSE
ton looked exceedingly gay as the
crowds of well dressed people paraded
around to the music of the band and the
ripple of the fountain. The art gallery
of the class of people likely to purchase
pictures have been noticed coming in at
last. The supposition is that they wait
ed till this late day to Avoid the great
crush of the first few days. Mesdames
Dorilus Morrison, L. B. Wal
ker and John S. Pillsbury
were among those noticed carefully
inspecting the gallery within the past
day or so. There were no organized eX-
erciSeS arranged by the millers, nor did
they come in body as originally in
an object of holding the holiday at the
Exposition, and seemed highly pleased
and instructed with all they saw.
Wandering through the mazes of the
sights that present Themselves daily in
the building, the eye is invariably
drawn to the display of Janney Bros.
& Semple, and the wanderer is made to
think that honesty and principle are
two ingredients, when well mixed and
shaken before taking, invariably pro-

example proving such to be the
fact can be found than by point

continuous diet prescribed above. They
have not only achieved a reputation and

Their jobbing trade has increased so
rapidly in late years that the firm con-

and First avenue south.
EXPOSITION NOTES.
Robert Nickle, the magician, was in the
press department yesterday evening and in
reminiscent mood, remarked that he played
an engagement once before in Minneapolis,
but it was many years ago-in fact it was i'll
1871, and lasted for one week at the Pence
opera house. c. w; Sherman, of Buffalo, was
his manager and they played to crowded
houses. The city then had only about $4,000
people, but the Nicollet house was at the old
stand and he stopped there. AT st. Paul he
played at the old Ingersoll Music hall, and
put up at the Merchants Mr.. Nickle is, OF
course. very much surprised at the great
change in the Twin Cities, now and then.
